Description
In this lesson, we'll put the key of C to work by learning to play the song 'Keep That Faith'.
Remember, you'll find the lyrics and chords under the 'Image' tab below the video, and you can print them out by going to the 'Print Lesson' tab.
First we will preview the song structure.
Then I will play it for you, so you can hear where we are headed.
And finally, we'll do a full play-along with the band!
You will probably want to print out the music for this so you can follow along.
And don't worry if it takes a while before you can keep up with the whole song. That can be a big challenge!
Just remember, you can always practice it on your own, at a much slowed-down pace.
Practice each section on its own. Break it into smaller bits.
And, when you are playing along with me, remember that if you make a mistake or get lost, just relax, hang back, and wait for a good place to jump in and join me again.
Have fun with this!

KEEP THAT FAITH (lyrics)
VERSE 1:
I've been thinking 'bout your situation
In the middle of the night, you're waking up and
Feeling low. It's real, I know.
Like you've gone and lost a friend
VERSE 2:
Can I offer you some consolation
Or at least a little conversation
It's just me, you know. And I love you so.
So I'm gonna say this again.
CHORUS:
You gotta keep that faith, Baby
That it's all gonna work out fine
You gotta try and roll with the changes, Baby
And, yeah, it's gonna take some time
So let's keep our sights on the Northern Lights
And keep your hand in mine
We're gonna keep that faith, Baby
Keep that faith
VERSE 3:
It might look like it's all falling apart
It might feel like you are right at the start
Of a slippery slope, and you're losing hope
That it will ever be alright again
VERSE 4:
You might think you're going down the tubes
You might think that you're about to lose
Your center point, universal joint
You will never be you again
CHORUS:
You gotta keep that faith, Baby
That it's all gonna work out fine
You gotta try and roll with the changes, Baby
And, yeah, it's gonna take some time
So let's keep our sights on the Northern Lights
And keep your hand in mine
We're gonna keep that faith, Baby
Keep that faith
